Watch: Five Minutes in the New Wavegarden With Your Favourite Surfers

Gotta be honest … it’s looking pretty damn fun!

So earlier this week Wavegarden dropped a teaser clip of their new Wavegarden Cove – A better hollower version of their previous offering – and able to pump out a staggering 1000 waves per hour.

The teaser left much to the imagination, but it did show some hollow chlorinated nugs. Not quite on Kelly’s level but pretty damn good.

Now the full five-minute edit has dropped and boy oh boy, does Kelly have some competition on his hands! Although not as mind-bendingly perfect as Kelly’s wave, it has to be said it looks damn fun, and almost has a more ‘real’ quality about it.

A wedgey take off into the tube followed by multiple turn sections, and the best bit, before you’ve even finished there’s already another identical wave peeling off behind you. There’s no downtime at all, which is where Wavegarden have KS Wave Co. by the short and curlys. According to many sources, Kelly’s pool is currently able to produce only one wave every 7-10 minutes.

Let’s be honest here though. Forget this is a pool and you rocked up to your local doing this, you’d be pretty stoked no?

Seven free surfers embark on a voyage to boldly go where no man had gone before.

Seven free surfers embarked on a voyage to boldly go where no man had gone before.

Not that long ago, in an island chain far, far away, seven free surfers embarked on a voyage to boldly go where no man had gone before. Equipped with an array of surfboards, a packet of crayons and two ukuleles, their chances of success were slim. In pursuit of perfection, they were forced to navigate under the radar of a fleet of imperial boat charters. Despite numerous obstacles, the rebel alliance of wave-riding beatniks continued to make Galactik Tracks into a new surfing cosmos; their search for a Nirvana reaching its climax when they arrived at… The Island of Nowhere.

STARRING: DAVE RASTOVICH

The film features the enigmatic and free-thinking Dave Rastovich at home on the Far North Coast of NSW.

Gathering is a short film from independent filmmaker Nathan Oldfield, the creator of the award-winning left of centre surf films Lines From a Poem, Seaworthy and The Heart & The Sea. The film features the enigmatic and free-thinking Dave Rastovich at home in the sacred playgrounds of the Far North Coast of New South Wales. The film explores Rastovich’s ideas around how the tension between the industrial and the natural in the surfing world unfolds in that place. Ultimately, Gathering celebrates how diversity and difference in ecosystems, relationships and surfing contribute to the preciousness of life. Gathering is easy on the eyes and ears and Tracks Magazine is proud to present it to you. Nathan Oldfield is a maverick, a filmmaker who wants a surf movie to say something important, to move us and make us grateful for the sea around us and the life within us. His films are quiet, beautiful and brimming with sacred purpose. Tim Winton, Acclaimed Australian Novelist
